Thompson Georgetown £ S LS esterl ) zA Review Southwestern University was opened on October 6, 1873 in a plain stone building with a regent, two professors and thirty-three students. In June 1923, she celebrated her Golden Jubilee and stepped into her second half century of progress and development. This turn into her second half century of history was made significant by the launching of the Greater South- western Movement. This movement had its origin in the Ex-Students ' Association of the University and was launched under the joint auspices of that association and the University ' s Board of Trustees. Its objective was the securing of 500,000 to be used in erecting the Cody Memorial Library, a Gymnasium, and the increasing of the University ' s endowment. Rev. Glenn Flinn, an alum- nus of the University was called to promote the movement as its Executive Secretary, and in June 1024 it was formally inaugurated. After the destruction of the Woman ' s Building by fire in January 1925 the objective of the movement was enlarged to embrace a new dormi- tory. Its progress has been such as to gratify and encourage the friends of Southwestern. A total of more than $340,000 has been subscribed to the movement to date and new subscrip- tions and monev are being received every day. OURFRIENDS The gratifying success of the Greater Southwestern Movement has been due in a large way to a group of friends who have manifested their interest in the old school by subscriptions ranging in amounts from two to fifty thousand dollars. The pictures of most of these friends appear in this connection. Because of modesty and other reasons the pictures of the rest could not be secured. Among those whose pictures do not appear are some whose names cannot be left out. There is first of all, Mr. J. M. West, lumberman of Houston. What a debt does Southwestern owe to him! It was he who headed the special group of Houston men who laid on Southwestern ' s altars more than one hundred thousand dollars. It was he who was chosen by the Board of Trustees of which he is a member to be chairman of the new dormitory ' s building committee. These and other striking evidences of his interest in Southwestern bring her under eternal ob- ligation to him. And there is Mr. W. L. Clayton, international cotton factor, of Houston, a man of large mould and large gifts to many worthy causes. Southwestern is deeply grateful and exceedingly glad to be on the list of those institutions which he counts worth while. Then there is Judge R. E. Brooks, prominent capitalist of Houston. Judge Brooks is a graduate of Southwestern and she has rejoiced in his achievements both at the bar and in the world of business. That he should be mindful of the needs of his Alma Mater awakens sincere appreciation. And still again among her special friends must be written the name of Mr. W. P. Ferguson, a leading oil man, of Wichita Falls. Mr. Ferguson ' s handsome gift to the new dormitory fund was sent to the University through his pastor, Dr. W. J. Johnson, and came at a time as to be most encouraging. Mr. Ferguson has also been a contributor to Southern Methodist University and he and his sons have built a large modern dormitory for Simmons College in memory of Mrs. Ferguson, deceased. Southwestern rightly is boastful of his friendship. And the list cannot be completed without mentioning the names of Mr. W. W. Fondren and D ' John H. Foster of Houston and Mrs. C. C. Cody of Georgetown. The Methodist schools of Texas have no finer or more liberal friend than Mr. Fondren. He is a prominent oil man of Houston and among his other benefactions has been the establishment of The Fondren Lectures on Missions at Southern Methodist University. Southwestern University is glad that he docs not forget her. Dr. Foster is one of the outstanding physicians of Houston and South Texas and is an alumnus of Southwestern. His gifts to her have been numerous through the years. Mrs. Cody is the widow of the Grand Old Man of Southwestern, Dr. C. C. Cody, and the deep interest in the school which was in the heart of Dr. Cody is being perpetuated in Mrs. Cody and her sons. And this list of friends could be greatly enlarged to include many who have given as much as $1000 and scores who have given as much as 500, and hundreds who have made smaller gifts, all friends that Southwestern appreciates and whose names she would like to inscribe on these pages, but for lack of space. So es -T lll S FRIENDS of SOUTHWESTERN Mr. Jesse H. Jones, LL.D. Banker, Builder, Financier — Houston About eighteen years ago, Southwestern University had her first introduction to Mr. Jones. She was in the midst of a campaign at that time for a Theological Endowment Fund, and her introduction to Mr. Jones came in the form of a telegram, announcing a personal gift of $25,000.00 to this fund. In 1925, before the smoke of her burned Annex had scarcely blown away another telegram came from Mr. Jones, then in New York, bearing a message of sympathy and a cheering promise of aid in rebuilding. This promise later ma- terialized in a large gift. Mr. Jones is one of the dominant constructive forces of his home city and state, and has been drafted a number of times for nationwide service in connection with both political and philanthropic movements. In appreciation of his attainments and the service he has rendered both city and state, Southwestern University, in 1025, was pleased to confer on him the LL.D. degree. Mr J. W. Reynolds Lumberman — Houston In three most effective ways Mr. Reynolds has given evidence of his love of and confidence in Southwestern University. He has been a patron, a large giver, and for years a frequent visitor to its campus. In fact, no man in Texas, outside of Georgetown, is so well known or so greatly loved by the Southwestern student body as he is. In addi- tion to his magnificent gift toward the erection of its dor- mitory he has proved himself a friend to man) ' a worth} ' and needy student, whom he has enabled to stay in school. The friendship of such men as Mr. Reynolds gives South- western a real sense of security and optimism. Mr. John H. Kirby Lumberman — Houston Texas has no bigger or better known business figure than Mr. Kirby. In the lumber industry he is an out- standing national figure. Southwestern University has been a recipient of his generosity upon a number of occasions, and when the matter of erecting a much needed library building as a memorial to his old teacher, Dr. C. C. Cody, was presented to him, he made the large contribution that insures its success. While a student in Southwestern University, Mr. Kirby developed a warm regard for Dr. Cody that has never abated. He is a man of most generous spirit, as many a worthwhile enterprise can attest. The 5° M ' w fir5 g2 J 0% FRIENDS 0 SOUTHWESTERN Mr. VV. A. McCord Banker — Bastrop About the time the Greater Southwestern movement was getting under good headway news came to the University that Mr. W. A. McCord of Bastrop had decided to make Southwestern University a gift in memory of his deceased wife, and wanted some official of the University to visit him. The visit was made and the second large gift of the Greater Southwestern movement was added to its records, coming from Mr. McCord upon his own initiative and in conformity with the wish of his wife, Sallie Eva Powell McCord. who was during her lifetime an ardent friend of South- western. Mr. McCord stands high in the business circles of central and southwest Texas and has for years been a large supporter of the various interests of his church. He is a member of Southwestern ' s board of trustees, and it delights the University to number him among its friends and staunch supporters. Mr. E. L. Craik Building and Investments — Houston Mr. Crain was a student in Southwestern University some years ago and since leaving her halls, has always manifested a keen interest in her progress. He is one of the leading younger business men of Houston, being president of the Crain Ready-cut House Company and of the Houston Investment Co., and a director in a number of Houston ' s other business organizations. He was chairman of the Greater Southwestern Campaign in Houston and to him is due large credit for its suc- cess. During that campaign he gave much of his val- uable time to its direction and in addition made a most substantia! contribution to the University. He is a member of the First Methodist Church of Houston. W ■I ■ Mr. J. M. Rockwell Lumberman — Houston Mr. Rockwell is another one of those big business men who have shown a real appreciation of South- western. It was the school selected for the education of his own boys, and he has on a number of occasions shown in a most material fashion his desire to help Southwestern pass her privileges on to the sons of other Texas homes. A check from the Rockwell broth- ers was the first out of town check to be received by the University after its fire, and Mr. Rockwell has since added substantially to that initial gift. He is sharing the privilege of building Southwestern ' s new dormitory, and the old school appreciates it. %e Sou ' wester J9 ' 2b FRIENDS of SOUTHWESTERN Judge W. L. Dean, LL.I). Lawyer — Huntsville Judge Dean is President of Southwestern ' s Board of Trustees, and in this capacity is rendering the Univer- sity valuable service. He is one of the school ' s most honored graduates, being recognized not only as a strong lawyer, but as one of the most constructive political factors of the State. Judge Dean is a layman that Texas Methodism has come to know and honor in a large way, both for his character and for his active interest in all her movements. As a token of its appre- ciation of him and his distinguished service to both Church and State, Southwestern University at its Golden Jubilee bestowed on him the honor of an LL.D. degree. 4r jPmm Mr. J. T, Sneed, Jr. Cattleman — . 1 martllo Mr. Sneed is one of Southwestern ' s ex-students that has achieved large success in the business world. He has become one of the outstanding cattlemen of the state. He has frequently made gifts to his old college and in connection with the Greater Southwestern Movement has established the J. T. Sneed Endow- ment Scholarship. Mr. Sneed ' s father before him was for many years a strong friend of Southwestern, and it is with sincere gratification that she has been able for some years now to list the name of the son among the friends that she counts upon. Mr. W. E. Orgain Lawyer — Beaumont In the earlier days of Southwestern ' s history, she had no stronger or more deeply appreciated friend than Mr. D. D. Orgain of Bastrop. He was for many years a member of the Board of Trustees, a patron of the school, and a liberal contributor to her needs. It was a most fitting thing that his valued service to Southwestern should be perpetuated in the person of his son, W E. Orgain, of Beaumont, who for a number of years has also been one of the University ' s most valued Trustees. No better evidence of the son ' s gen- uine interest in the old school could be had than he has given through his gifts and his activity in her behalf. Beaumont has no stronger member of its bar than Mr. Orgain. 75o ej 7 926 FRIENDS of SOUTHWESTERN Mrs. William Wiess Houston In the halls of Southwestern University is a marble sl ab containing the names of both Mr. and Mrs. William Wiess, of Beaumont, Texas, as members of the Harrison $100,000 Club. Mrs. Wiess has, for many years shown an appreciation of the type of educational opportunities offered by Southwestern, and in this appreciation she was joined by her husband during his lifetime. She is deeply devoted to her church and its institutions, and her ears are ever open to their appeals. The story of Southwestern ' s great fire loss was heard by her with keen sympathy, as was evi- denced by a generous gift toward the rebuilding of its destroyed dormitory. She now lives in Houston, and is a member of St. Paul ' s Church. Mrs. John R. Nelson Z) ( ; ;.s- Among the pastors that have served Southwestern and the First Methodist Church of Georgetown, none have left a more enduring impression than Rev. John R. Nelson, D. D. During later years he served the University most successfully in a campaign for funds, with which to establish a medical department in Dallas. Sharing in his love for Southwestern and ever help- ful in all his labors was his devoted wife, who after his death decided to perpetuate his ministry to the Methodist youth of Texas by establishing a scholar- ship at Southwestern in his memory. Mrs. Nelson now lives in Dallas. Mrs. J. J. Perkins Wichita Falls Mrs. Perkins is one of Southwestern ' s daughters to whom she is accustomed to point with unusual pleas- ure and gratification. While a student in Southwestern University she made a most enviable record and since leaving her halls, she has ever been mindful of the Old Mother ' s needs. She and her fine husband have proved themselves to be great friends of Chris- tian education in Texas. A few years ago, the Lois Perkins and J. J. Perkins Loan Funds were established at Southwestern by Mr. and Mrs. Perkins, and when the disastrous fire of 1025 came, she was among the first to promise substantial aid. She is also sharing in the service of erecting the Cody Memorial Library. Such friendship the University does not easily forgel.

The proposed amendment must be posted with the notice of the meeting a week previous to the meeting. The Sou ' wester The T earbook of the Students ' Association We have, in the production of the Sou ' wester ' 26, striven to give to the student body not only an inner story of the University as it appears to us day by day through- out the year, but also a book of which the student body might be proud. The general plan of the book has been changed in several respects, and there is, as a natural con- sequence, a good deal of interest on our part, as to just what the reaction of the student body will be to the new plans. We have taken as a general motif, a theme as old as Christianity, and the whole book is laid around scenes taken from vivid descriptions appearing in the Bible. With this in mind, and with the institution of an entirely new system of color work, we have deemed it necessary and advisable, to carry a complete simplicity through certain sections of the book. To the faculty committee on publications, with special acknowledgment to the chairman, Mr. Entriken, we wish to express our thanks for their timely advice and assistance. To Miss Neas, to Dr. Tinsley, and to all others who have in any way assisted in the rather large undertaking, we wish to express our appreciation. Having done our best, we offer for your inspection, the SOU ' WESTER ' 26. George F. Mood, Editor Roscoe K.

W t SwtoesUr lWb JSBm The zJKCega phone The Weekly Publication of the Student Body The weekly publication of the Southwestern Student Body appears on the campus each Tuesday, not exactly a newspaper, for no weekly can he that, but in every possible manner a mirror of the school. Perhaps this mirror has not always carried a true reflection of the events and stu- dent opinion of Southwestern, but the staff has earnestly endeavored to follow the highest standards of journalism with regard to policies. The staff owes many thanks to Charley, the anonymous character who sees all, knows all, and to the class in Journalism whose cooperation and work have been of great aid. Never before have the students and faculty been so generous in their support as they have this year, and the staff is truly grateful for it. Although handicapped by a financial depression, the business men of Georgetown have stood by the Megaphone, and this is greatly appreciated. The staff hopes it has been able to contribute its part toward the realization of a Greater Southwestern.

Southwestern -J agazine The policy of the Southwestern Magazine for tq:i6 has been simple, brief, and def- inite: to be the most representative literary organ of the campus, and to welcome any genuine expressions from all departments of the University which are constructive and creative in quality. We have not tried to make the Southwestern Magazine a mere collection of essays, though literary merit was always considered. We have not used it as a boost for any sprouting young genuis, or yet to give publicity to our own pet theories. We have striven earnestly to make e ach issue individualistic in content, cover design and general tone. W T e did not attempt to put out a magazine comparable with the Atlantic Monthlv, nor did we attempt to imitate any magazine in publication. But we have tried to make it the Southwestern Magazine. To say that we have succeeded in all our dreams and ideals would be neither truthful nor becoming on the part of the Editors. But we can safely say, that if the students of the University respond to and cooperate with the Editors of the future as they have done this year, the Southwestern Magazine may become the natural channel of student expression, and a powerful factor in the formation of student ideals.

These governing bodies do not have as their purpose or am- bition perfection in police force duties, but rather to instill into the minds of the students that thev are members of a group, hence the importance of respecting the rights of others, and obeying the rules that are put on for the benefit of all concerned. One of these governing bodies is the Woman ' s Building Honor Council. This council is composed of twelve girls elected from the three upper classes, and charged with the duty of judging the cases of misconduct of girls living within the Woman ' s Building.

Pr f%e Sou ' wester j926 zAlamo J iterary Society Motto: Let man learn illustrious virtue by Association. Society Colors: Black and White. The Alamo Literary Society was founded in 1845 under a name different from its present name, but under similar leadership and constitutional government. In 1873, the society was transferred to Southwestern University as the University ' s first literary society. The Society was originally composed of men only but in recent years the men have seen it necessary, since women have the same rights as men, to let them become members. The true spirit of the original group of men that lost their lives in the Texas Alamo, has been transferred to the members of the present society and these present Alamos are ever loyal. Interest and good work is expressed in the regular meetings of the society, socials, debates, and athletic contests. And it is this year, especially, that the interest and en- thusiasm have increased. This year the society has developed nine of the sixteen inter- collegiate debaters. This year we have won victories in football and basketball over our opponents, the San Jacs. The society has increased in membership from fifty to one hundred and thirty, and the Hall has been entirely remod elled. A good many of the leaders in student activities are members of this society. If there is ever a group of students that are going to work for a bigger and better South- western, it is this group; they stand for the bigger and better things of life, and present them in an interesting way.

S ' Ster IW m San Jacinto The San Jacinto Literary Society of Southwestern University has completed one of the most successful years of its history. For fi fty-one years loyal San Jacs have kept up the traditions and customs of the Society, creating new customs and making history as significant and inspiring as in the first thrilling days of her existence. The standard of membership has never been lowered, the spirit of fellowship has never waned, the thirst for knowledge anti the appreciation of culture is ever keen and en- thusiastic. Improvements have been made on the hall, and a beautiful new piano lends its mellow tones to our morning programs. San Jacinto knows how to hold fast to valuable ideals of the past, and to keep up with the best thought of the day.

Qlassica Societas The purpose of the Classical Club, Classica Societas, is sug- gested in its motto: We cultivate the beautiful with simpli- city. It is composed of Latin and Greek students and meets once each month. The meetings further the study of the classics and afford the students more intimate association with their professor as well as with each other. This year the meetings have been held in the home of Professor Vaden, and he has endeared himself greatly to his students. Left to right, top to bottom: Prof. W. C.

Under the leadership of Dr. J. C. Godbey, the Chemical Society was organized. Last vear, the organization deemed it wise to widen its scope to include all of the pure sciences. A complete reorganization took place, the constitution and by-laws were so changed as to admit to membership students who have completed the requirements for admission in any department of natural science. The Society is divided into three divisions, Chemistrv, Phvsics, and Biologv, and students may enter from any ot these departments. The organization has enjoved many interesting and helpful meetings during the present session, and has increased notably in size and importance on the campus. Next vear should show a continuation of this growth. Left to right, top to bottom: Travis Griffith, Vernon Guthrie, Richard Gusman, Walter Bell, Forest Yoas, Dr. W. H.

With the aid of my mimetic art, Humanity sees itself reflected on the stage in all its many changing moods — grave and gay. I am the Drama. With pitiless precision of the skillfull surgeon, I prove the souls of men, portraying each according to his measure, remorselessly holding the Mirror up to Nature. I deride Society ' s follies, castigate its vices, extol its virtues. 1 trade in every human emotion. I create laugh and tear. 1 am the Drama.

In the spirit of Comedy, the glamour of Romance, the veiled figure of Tragedy, I am grim Realism itself. I visualize the historic past. I make live again the great of other days — Brutus, Caesar, Napoleon, Washington, Lee, Lincoln, Grant. In Shakespeare ' s mighty line I reveal Othello ' s wrath and Juliet ' s woe. In stately precision they pass — the majestic Lear, the gentle Rosalind, the crafty Shylock, the sinister Gloster, the ardent Romeo, the melancholoy Dane, the ambitious Macbeth, the sportive Touchstone, the lovely Benedict, the vacillating Peer Gynt, the carping Pantaloons, the sophisticated Pierette.

Since the date of its first rehearsal, it has grown in numbers until thirty-five are included in its membership. The ensemble is well balanced and includes nearly all symphonic instruments. The success of the orchestra may be accredited to the loyal spirit existing between the conductor, Ed Onstot, and the members. The orchestra wishes to thank Miss Vause, head of the Violin Depart- ment of the University, for her services as concertmeister. The work of the Southwestern Little Symphony has been largely in the field of opera. Next year stress will be laid on overtures. Each year the orchestra hopes to give especial attention to a particular form of music. %e So« ' wSter J92 M m The Pirate Baud The Pirate Band has made wonderful progress this year over what it has done during previous years. At the opening of the school year new uniforms were ordered for the band and a period of field drill was entered into, thus developing a band that was proclaimed by the Trini- tonian to be the best college band in the state. Under the directorship of Mr. Edwin Walker the band is entered in the State Band Contest held in Waco May 3rd and 4th. This contest is made up of some fifty bands from all over the state, with thirteen classes for various types of bands. The Southwestern Universitv band entered in the Senior College class to compete against Southern Methodist University, Texas Christian University, Baylor University, Rice Institute, and any other members of the Southwestern Conference in this division. The band at present is made up of twentv-eight pieces and is well balanced in all sections. • 4 ' TkS ester 7WM s££E The zJ%Cethod st Student Federaton The Methodist Student Federation, which represents the interests of the religious activities of Southwestern University was organized in February 1923. In the summer of 1922, at the call of Rev. Glenn Flinn, a small group of college workers and friends from various parts of Texas met in Dallas to talk over the religious situation among the Methodist students of Texas, and to take such steps as were thought best to im- prove that situation. No feeling of alarm or pessimism was manifested in that group, it being recognized that many splendid agencies and elements were already operating in behalf of more than 13,000 students involved; yet the fact was frankly faced that conditions might be improved as far as the local institutions were concerned, and that as far as any effective union of the various groups went, there was an impressive de- ficiency. It was the judgment of this meeting that some sort of state-wide organization should be formed among the Methodist students of Texas for the more adequate pro- motion of religious objectives among them, and that a call should be issued for a con- ference of representative students from all the Methodist, state, and private schools of Texas to consider the promotion of such an organization. That call was issued and on February 2, 1923, more than one hundred students from twenty-two schools met at Georgetown, and the Texas Methodist Student Federation was organized. Since that time four successful conferences have been held. At the last conference Southwestern was honored by the selection of two officers from her student body; Bruce Palmer, president; and Buster Powell, treasurer. Rev. Glenn Flinn, executive secretary of Southwestern, is a member of the State Executive Board. The Federation is not an attempt to present a new organization in addition to the organizations already existing and operating, but to present a method of unifying and vitalizing the work already being attempted by these existing organizations, which are units forming the local Federation. The unit organizations include Y.M.C.A., Y.W.C.A., Epworth League, Sunday School, Volunteer Band, and Ministerial Associa- tion, together forming the membership of the Federation. The administration of the affairs of the Federation centers in a council which for the year 1925-26 was composed of the following representatives: Frank Mood, Y.M.C.A.; Christine Walker, Y.W.C.A.; Weldon Teague, Ministerial Association; Mary Hemphill, Volunteer Band; Harold Graves, Epworth League; J. B. Entriken, Sunday School; Gladys Shook, student secretary; Rev. J. T. Ren fro, pastor; Rev. Glenn Flinn, executive secretary; Prof. F. C. A. Lehmberg, board of stewards; Prof. G. A. Hester, faculty. The officers of the federation were Weldon Teague, president; P. K. Durrett, first vice-president; Tom Perrin, second vice-president; Mary Nash Buttery, third vice-president;Oscar Thurston, fourth vice-president; Gladys Shook, secretary-treasurer. The year 1925-26 witnessed the most successful demonstration in Southwestern. Among other accomplishments a $1500 budget was pledged, the most of which was paid; four mission study classes were conducted during the Winter term, with gratify- ing results; twelve delegates attended the fourth annual conference of the Texas Metho- dist Student Federation; and deputations held services at a number of neighboring towns. It is hoped that in the future the Federation will continue to accomplish the things it has undertaken to do at Southwestern and that much good will be effected through its efforts. %e Sou ' wester ]92b Young Women s Qhristian Association To influence students to devote themselves, in united efforts with all Christians, to making the will of Christ effective in human society, and to extending the Kingdom of God throughout the World.

Many things are being planned for the students next vear, and the organization will have many opportunities to help the girls in their campus life.

There are two meetings held each week, and in these meetings men of experience and education are asked to come and talk; very often these men are faculty members and at other times men out of town. Membership in this association is not required of ministerial students, but the large majority of them belong to it, making up a body of twenty-five or more men.

Although the chapter at Southwestern is relatively new, it is attempting to fulfill this reputation. As outlined in its statement of purpose, the organization is endeavoring to further the best interests of Southwestern by acting as a sort of medium between the administration and student opinion, and to establish a spirit of fraternalism among all students. The national organization, of which the local chapter has recently become a part, was originally planned to include only outstanding men of various campuses. The organizers of the Society at Southwestern, however, felt that there was a large part which could be played by the co-eds of the campus, and accordingly they were admitted to membership. The fraternity meets twice each month in a luncheon session, at which times va- rious questions of interest to students are discussed and plans of action are mapped out.

The colors of the Society are emerald green, signifying victory, and sapphire blue, signifying truth. The badge is a shield bearing a lamp, and is ' worn only by mem- bers of the societv. Membership is granted to those students who make an average of ninety over eighteen majors of work or an average of eighty-seven over twentv-seven majors of work. In addition to high scholarship, good reputation and character are essential qualifications for membership. At Commencement a prize is presented by the society to the Freshman who has made the highest scholastic average during the year. Each year the society is addressed by a distinguished scholar who deals wrth matters relating to high scholarship and advancement of knowledge. On February twenty-s econd of this vear, the state con- vention of Scholarship Societies of Texas was held at Southwestern. At that time this chapter was the host to twenty-five societies representing various colleges from many sections of the state. Left to right, top to bottom: Clifton Hodges, Elizabeth Fly, A. G.

It has been instrumental in securing good speakers as well as known authorities in their lines to address the society. All members feel that they have derived much good from the society. The requirements for entrance are not too high, but are sufficiently high to enable only such students as are especially interested in Social Science to gain entrance. Only seniors and faculty members are eligible for membership and their major interest must be in the Social Sciences. Pi Gamma Mu is looking forward to a great year next year.

Rushing rules are set by them, and thev are held responsible for the enforcement of these rules as well as punishments of violations. The Council made a forward move this year in the giving of an all-University tea, sponsored by the Pan- Hellenic Council. The purpose of the entertainment was to give the student body a chance to get acquainted with each other in an informal way, and the occasion was highly enjoyed by the entire student body. The Council plans to make this affair an annual one.

The Council this year, has, in addition to its regular duties, established a trophy room, which has been absent from our campus since the destruction by fire of the gymnasium several years ago. The cases of the trophy room are already rilling rapidly, and if the Pirates bring home a few more championships, we will have to build a special building to take care of this new enterprise. The Council this year consists of R. W. Tinslev, J. C. Godbey, E. H. Herford, and Carl Reynolds. Left to right: E. H. Herford, J. C. Godbev, Carl Reynolds, R. W.

He came to us after suc- cessfully coaching Electra High School and the North Texas Aggies during a period of three years. He is a good sportsman, heady coach, and has a pleasing personality to cap his good qualities. He is loved and respected by Slime and Senior, scrub or Varsity men, and delivers the goods in the way of championship teams. %e $ou ' wester ]92b SAM CRENSHA W TERRY STEVENS Tf e Tell J eaders The story of Southwestern ' s wonderful achievements in the realms of Athletic con- tests during the present year would not be complete without recognition of the services rendered by the Yell Leaders. Sam Crenshaw and Jerry Stevens, both new men on the job this year, proved their ability to keep the Pirate spirit going through every contest. The rooting sections were constantly alive, and it is to these men that the credit is due. They also supervised the activities of the Pep Squad, and through their work, together with the cooperation of the pep squad members, that organization contributed greatly toward the success of the T. I. A. A. championship football team. The Pep Squad, led by the Yell leaders, were the center of the rooters section at the Temple game, and between halves, this squad of men and women, together with the Southwestern band, paraded the field and presented various stunts which added much to the success of the Temple trip and the Austin College game. Football The Sou ' wester J92b T. I. zA. _A . (Jiampions We set out to win the T. I. A. A. championship, and also the laurels for the Texas Conference, and we did it. There is nothing more to be said. Howard Payne threatened to defeat us, but got no nearer than a tie. We owe thanks to Howard Payne, however, for defeating Simmons University on Turkey Day, for by our defeat of San Marcos on the same day, our claims were undisputed and our position secure. Coach Edens is a wonderful coach, the Pirate team is a won- derful team, and the school whose colors they wear is a won- derful school. This is the first time in the history of Texas intercollegiate athletics that one school was able to win two championships in the same sport in the same year. Let us present to vou, the greatest football team Southwestern has ever produced. The Sou ' wester ]92b Bruce Duncan, Captain, Guard Llano, Weight I Sc Bruce was one of the best generals for a Pirate team ever seen on Snyder Field, and a good player to match his generalship. His judgment in sizing up plays, and in sifting the opponents ' defensive caused him to be placed on the second All-Texas and All-T.I.A.A. teams. Senior, tour years Tom Perrin, End Georgetown, Weight 170 Tom was the most consistent end many of us have ever seen. He was fast, tackled hard, and played the game squarely. When the ball was passed to him in crucial moments his arms formed a natural basket. Gains around his end were few. He was placed on the second All- T.I.A.A. team three vears in succession. Junior, two years Major Hardin, End Georgetown, Weight 168 Maj was like a western cow pony, unlimited stamina and endurance, and willing to tight until he dropped. He injured a knee late in the season, but because of his stellar playing earlier in the season his right to a letter was unquestioned. ?K The Sou ' wester J92b minor, two vears Carl Reynolds, Captain-elect, Tackle Del Rio, Weight 195 Carl was one of the greatest tackles seen in Texas athletics this year, having been chosen on the first teams of both the T.I. A. A. and the All-Texas team. Hard hitting, fast, and sure tackling characterized his playing throughout the season. Fresh ashman, one year Eugene Jackson, Haljback Luling, Weight 160 Gene was the individual star of the St. Edwards game. He is the prettiest broken field run- ner ever seen on a Corsair gridiron for many seasons. He runs with his knees high up, feet far apart, and uses the stiff arm to perfection. He should figure largely in 1027 football. Freshman, one year Wesley Blackburn, Quarter Rockdale, Weight 150 Blackie assumed the role of regular quarter and could general the team to perfection. Kick- ing from fifty to seventy yard punts was his specialty, and he co uld drop kick with ease from the forty yard line. He was called the best kicker in the entire state. If I 10 A %e Sou ' wester J92b Senior, two years Grady Reynolds, Guard Del Rio, Weight 170 Grady was a bulwark in the Pirate line. Like his little brother he was a star in all the games he played. He was in the starting line-up of nearly all the games, and his side of the line was impregnable. Senior, three years M. K. Bachtel, Guard Mishawaka, Ind., Weight 190 Reef Trust was a tower of strength in the Pirate line. He was good, he was heavy, and he had the fighting spirit always with him. He came all the way from Indiana to introduce north- ern methods into southern football, and those methods never failed. Freshman, one year Don Johns, Center Georgetown, Weight 16s Don was a center with a head, and he knew how to use it in times of stress. On defensive playing he had his place in the line plugged, and was the keystone of the machine on offensive playing. His finger signals were never figured out by his opponents. %e Sou ' wester ]92b Senior, tour Duane Mateer, Halfback Wichita, Kan., Weight 175 Rabbit has been his nickname for four years, and he was as fast this season as ever before. He could also pass to perfection and kick well when called on. He has the weight for a good line plunger and was always there with his best. Senior, two years D. S. Dickson, Halfback Navasota, W 7 eight 135 Dick was a little light in weight, but heavy with his fighting ability. He proved a thorn in the side of his opponents because of his fleetness. He could whip around the enemy ' s wings for long gains when called upon to do so. Freshman, one year M. L. Hodges, Guard Marlin, Weight 155 Hodge was the freshman full o ' fight. Although not a regular in the starting line-ups he played in such a manner as to show that he had his right to membership on the Championship team. Gains over his position were few. ess %e §ou ' wester ]92b S3, Senior, two years John Barcus, Quarterback Corsicana, Weight [40 John played relief quarter, his lightness being a handicap for the regular berth. He was a track man, and could skirt the ends for gains at regular intervals. He played safety man and ran the ball back on every kick of the opponents. Freshman, one vear 1.. D. Livingston, End Lawton, Okla., Weight 175 Livy is a big man, and he played the end position well. He stands over six feet, and used his brawn to good advantage at all times. He came to us after being an all round athlete with the North Texas Aggies, and it proved our gain and their loss. Sophomore, two years Leroy Weeks, Fullback Georgetown, Weight 170 Leroy was the best fullback of the season. He had the weight, the nerve, and the endurance to hit the line for gains, and he always did just that. He proved good at kicking and passing to any desired distance, and was also a pretty broken field runner. %e Sou ' wester -J92 Junior, one year Robert Leissner, Fullback Yorktown, Weight 180 Rabbi hit the line as hard as any man on the team. His specialty was to leap some few feet after he was tackled, or else hurdle the line. He had his early training in the Texas Shorthorn camp. Senior, one ver D. Q. Adams, Fullback New Braunfels, Weight 175 Quince could and did hit the line like a battering ram against a piece of paper. He could pass neatly and occasionally would punt just to keep in practice. A good athlete. Sophomore, one year Lee Lemberg, Center Crockett, Weight 165 Lee was the regular center and shone brightly on defensive playing. Intercepting passes was his specialty and any in his territory were either intercepted or grounded, as he saw fit. Junior, one year Harold Terry, Gn Houston, Weight 18? Terry came to us from Lon Morris and like our other athletes from that school he made good from the start. He was the best relief guard on the powerful Pirate machine this year. ■HHHHHHHHHHHHHH ■O B MflBflMWttM P   t ■ ■ ffiHIlHHBi Basketball ■V _S£ 3 g 5 Q gJ g2£3 g Tteyiezv of the Season This is the first year of the existence of the Texas Conference, and the first cham- pionship laurels were handed to Southwestern. The entire Pirate quintet of this season was made up of seasoned and experienced players. Carl Reynolds was the outstanding star on all occasions, with Adams always crowding him for honors. The Pirates met all the strong teams in the T. 1. A. A. and the Texas Conference. They played series with some of the Southwestern conference teams and whether they won or lost, the game was always played fairly. The spirit inculcated into the team by Lefty was play the thing fair — win or lose. In most of the encounters, they emerged victorious, but sometimes the dregs of defeat were tasted, sweetened by the fact that they had done their best and had played clean ball. t the Texas Conference Tournament in Brownwood, they swept everything before them and emerged the undisputed, clean-playing victors. Adams was high point man in the tournament, despite the handicap of weak eyes. Carl Reynolds, assisted by Blackburn, guarded in such a manner that, while the forwards were marking up the counters, the enemies could not retaliate. The other men, notably Grady Reynolds and Mateer, performed as only real champions can, and carried the glory on their shoulders as well as did the others.

History alwavs repeats itself and once more the eight men wearing the Pirate colors marched off victorious. In the meet four records were broken, three of which were broken by Southwestern men. They were: the jave- lin throw, won by Duane Mateer; the high jump, won bv Fred Burgin; and the mile relay, in which we tied Denton Normal for first. Our relay team was composed of Skip- worth, Burgin, Gusman, and Kidd. Owing to the untiring work of Dr. J. C. Godbey, assisted by Manager Mavhew and his staff of assistants, the track was in perfect condition in spite of the prolonged drouth. The track being in this state, and the competition being strong, the meet was one of the fastest ever witnessed in the T. T. A. A. Baseball %e Sou ' wester -J92 COACH YOUNG Coach Young came to us after successfully coaching in Temple High school. He is an old Southwestern man, having won his letters in baseball here in T916, ' 17, ' 18, and ' 19. His team was highly successful the entire season, taking all things into consideration. Games were played with all classes of baseball clubs, and the games won far out- numbered the games lost. The So Ster lW m CARL REYNOLDS To sav nothing about Carl and his playing ability would be a slight to him, and to try to describe them would be impossible. He is the fifth four letter man in Southwestern ' s fiftv-three years of existence, and the first one to achieve that honor in his first year here. He is captain-elect ot next year ' s gridiron squad, and was captain of this year ' s quintet. Carl is a clean player, hard fighter, and popular student, both with the student body and with the faculty. The Sou ' wester -J926 jltt i n Bruce Duncan Pitcher Two Years Ham has been a producer on the mound for two years. He has the weight to stand up under grilling games, and always turns in a good record. Norman Cox Left field One Year Carry was a good fielder, but his specialty was along the slugging line. A Chicago scout remarked after he had hit one of his homers, that ball would go over any one ' s fence. John Rowntree Outfield Two Years Johnny was a slugger and he always managed to connect in every game. He was not as fast as he could have been, but he parked them over the fence and took his time going around. eSou ' wes terj-J J J. I. Weatherby Second base Two Years Snuffy was one of the best men at ground covering in the entire conference. He said very little, smiled less, hut he sure knows how to play baseball. He was one of the most consistent hitters on the team. Tommy Hipp Outfield One Year Tommy played the center garden position and those long high flies never got through him. He didn ' t play the entire season, but he acquitted himself well while in the game. Rightfield Joe Allen One Year Joe was little, but fast, and a sure hitter in every game. He covered the port side of the garden with sureness and accuracy, and not a ball ever got behind him.

We deliver this section to you in the spirit of the ancient Peloponnesian proverb: Honi soit qui mal y pense, which, being inter- preted is: It the shoe fits you wear it, but remember the hit dog howls. ' ' ■v S, The Sou ' wester -J 92 b Vol. Ill No. i The Qutlass S T A F F Editor-in-Chief The Choker Associate Editor Dr. Barcus Printer ' s Devil Dr. Gray Business Manager Mr. Williams General Flunky Dr. Tinsley EDITORIAL All good papers have editorials. A poor beginning makes a good ending, so says Dr. Barcus. Therefore, The Cutlass must start with an editorial written by its degen- erate editor. In the first place this editorial is to serve two functions, to give a reason for writing the section of this book, and to get some of the editor ' s wind off his chest. I am writing this because George Mood did not have time to do so and because he was afraid to. It is being written with but one thought in that section of the anatomy which generally serves as a hat rack and that is to have some fun at the expense of everyone save myself, by pointing out the peculiarities, habits, and conduct of certain groups and individuals upon our campus, who rate themselves higher than do their friends. The second reason for writing this is to let some people know that a certain prophecy in the Bible is fulfilled, and that is Be sure your sins will find you out. Now that I have taken my text I shall proceed: (never to come back to it, since it is divided into three parts: first, I take my text; second, I leave my text; third, I leave it for good.) KAPPA ALPHA This bunch of moral, social, and mental degenerates has moved to the country. Why, we do not know unless it is because they hate to litter up the avenue with their pledge pins which they throw out to every athlete that happens to pass by their row of stalls. gSFEEfc Ike $ou ' wefter ]92t They did have three fairly good men in the chapter, two of these being initiates and the other a pledge, but when Mr. Pret Stanford broke his pledge with the declara- tion, I won ' t stay in any $$$$ . . . . fraternity, when I can ' t play poker, and drink in its house when I want to. Well, the other two, Mr. Frieze and Mr. Dickson severed their relations with the bunch also. I don ' t blame them, do you? So with these three excellent men gone it has been rather a hard pull for the KA ' s, and it makes it still harder for the Choker to characterize them. There is one redeeming feature of this chapter however, and that is that Wallace Red with the help of a young lady got his degree at the end of his seventh year and is not back again. The other redeeming feature is that they have established a nursery in the chapter and initiated John Kidd, we understand that Tom Buckingham is his mother for the time being, although he has been trying to get rid of the job. There is one fact concerning the KA ' s that is not generally known, and that is that there has been only one member to get his degree by himself in four years and even he was Sea bones Wade, the pride of their hearts. Dean Wunder, so we understand, has a representative in each of the four frater- nities that keep him posted on the happenings within their brotherhoods. He also would like very much to get a certain popular faculty member to tell him of the seven men he has put to bed drunk. Prof. Guthrie once had a pet dog: it got pickled. Now he has a pet registrar (it won ' t do to tell) ??? Dr. Howard has four promising young daughters, but we wonder what he will do with the plans he had for his son. Prof. Gray is very much in need of some one to do his cussing for him while he plays golf. %e Sou ' wester ]92b KAPPA S I G M A Under this title may be listed the politicians, jelly beans, faculty members, and those who fool the faculty members for grades. For the past ten years this bunch has been pledging money in order to get their stately mansion painted and paid for. The man who lives just to the west of this defunct group is often quoted as saying that he lives between H — - and the railroad track. This may be true, but if it is I pity poor Satan trying to care for all of them at once, although they do tend to his business splen- didly. The motto of this group is Love the Zetas, but they have a hard time making Dick Hardin comply with their motto. The Choker has but one wish regards this group and that is that Miss Kuyk might walk in some night when all the lady friends are over for their weekly visit. It was indeed interesting to note the number of members of this organization who took Political Science 85 during the Fall term and the way Lippy Vineyard made a distinction in the course. This reference of course is made without the slightest re- flection upon the instructor in this course. However, a great number of this group have also made Mask Wig and other things, oh, well, we are just jealous that ' s all, knowing perfectly well that they made it upon a sheer display of ability. We understand that Raymond Moses likes to write letters at the request of Pan Hellenic. We also understand that this gentleman is quite depressed over the fact that the students did not like him well enough to re-elect him to the office sought so diligently. Burdick — I would like to call him Prof, but he resents that, he resents everything in fact that connects him in anyway with the faculty — well, Fll call him a gentleman, which is defined by the boys to mean 17 degrees below something, Fve forgotten just what. This man is a great friend of his fellow workers in the Physics department, as well as some others I might mention. Mr. Went ., the professor of the speech arts will appear before the student body on some near date, in a personal dramatization of Professor How Could You? If The Sou ' wester J92b PHI DELTA THETA This hunch of rough necks still lives in the same barn that it used to. This is a very remarkable fact, for we would have thot that the Sheriff would have found out where some of them live before this time. George Mood and Bruce Palmer are the two boys who keep this chapter from getting kicked out of school for, you see, both of them are on the honor council and we understand serve certain members of the frat quite well in that capacity. Palmer is the man of experience with the women, for he can get a girl, pin her in two months, have it off in as many weeks, and back on again in schedule time. Some work we calls it. It has been circulated around the campus that this chapter will have a slogan for rushing season next year, Join the Phis and get married. We pity the subjects for the experiment among the fair sex, especially the two who have already tried it. We only wonder what this chapter is doing to keep quiet the escapades of Johnnie and Archie in Austin and other neighboring towns. There is no other frat on the campus that has stooped to the thing this one has done and that is to let a man break a pledge and then beg him until he accepts another one. This group has in it a number of politicians also, of course Bell nor Fox either would stoop to dirty politics, but just the same we hear things. We understand that Miss Velma Tisdale is waiting for Mr. Burdick. to walk down the street with her. Dr. and Mrs. Vaden were the honor guests at the bridge party given at Young ' s dairy, Sterilized milk was served with Pure dream. Miss Kuvkendall, Mrs. McKennon, Mrs. Ferguson, and Mrs. Chambers are beiiu coached by Miss Bowles for the faculty relay team. Dr. Godbey is quite an honest gentleman, and an extra good golf player, but you had better not let him keep his own score. %e Sou ' wester -J 92 jf Eissi: PI KAPPA ALPHA These boys claim nothing, do nothing, have nothing, and are nothing to speak of, save such unmentionables as we decline to repeat since the material might be used by the Honor Council. There are several scholars among the bunch such as Polly, and a few other birds. This in fact is fast growing to be a supplement to the scholarship society, save those who are athletically inclined and this takes in ninety per cent of the chapter. The path for these boys has been all roses, with but one thorn in it and that is the fact that they have been unsuccessful in making Weeks accept a bid, although he did his best and we commend him for it, for perseverance is a virtue. They also include as one of them a really great musician, man of no mean ability and a really great man, Army. He has but one fault and that is practiced only on week ends m a city some thirty miles distant. Bobby Behrns, and Edwin Dannelly started the school year off with a whirl, even if it was in the head. ALPHA DELTA PI This group of girls is relieved of a great weight on its chest since the close of the winter term for Mary Germany now has her degree. But even with this problem gotten off there still remains the fact that they have to look to the girls whom the Zetas will not take for rushing material. Traylor Sells says that even though Sulphur Springs does grow lilies it grows the more beautiful daisies. We wonder why Bob Lily ' s hurried exit last fall??????? Someone has said that it is no wonder that we don ' t get much to eat at the cafeteria, when Mrs. Ray doesn ' t need anything! The Sou ' wester ]92b PHI MU They are of so little importance we decline to mention them. I would hate to see the contractor for the Woman ' s Building after Miss Kuvk gets thru bossing him, I ' ll bet she puts in some good training that will help out his wife. Yes Miss Kuyk is a very capable woman for her position, she manages her own and everyone else ' s business. There is a time for all things — now is the time to take a crack at everybody, so it falls Dr. Moses turn — if you don ' t know who I mean he is the man that passes out the Pluto and Asprin — in fact his Ford is now named Pluto — Passin ' thru. The choral club took a trip; Slime Perry went along, so did Annie Edward. During each performance Perry wore Annie Edward ' s pin. The choral club returned. John Barcus greeted Perry with a Glad to see you in the family. Will you accept him Zetas ? On this same Glee Club trip Tom Buckingham paid $7.30 to the Chambers. When nominations were read to the student body Slim Giddings withdrew his name. I don ' t blame him — humiliation at the polls is terrible. The only question is why didn ' t some others have as much sense? SL IE m ZETA TAU ALPHA Motto: Kappa Sigma and a good time Flower: Sunflower The greatest problem with this bunch is trying to make Misses Chapman and Cavton live up to their motto. This flip flop flapping bunch of flappers have another pain in the fact that they have pledged the town of Beaumont and can ' t get rid of it or teach it anything about flipping tor it already outflops the flippers and have renamed their town Flippersville. Chick Logan says that he wishes that these girls would make the boys that bring them to his house for church on Sunday nights bring in their own wood. DELTA DELTA DELTA This is the most pathetic group on our campus, for they are the emblems of the saddest thing in the history of the human race. They are the remnants to tell the story of a faded glory. They are the hasbeens. They once were, but are no more. The leaders are professional gripers. They start to do things; they fail. Their freshmen cannot make their averages. Liz Jones cannot keep her pin on. Christine Walker lost hers and as a result a bov went to the hospital the next day. Mary Nash Buttery lost all chances of ever losing hers. Mary Patterson hasn ' t one and we don ' t know where it is. One of their pledges married during Christmas. Jewel Ozment is just one among the long list. They all were but are no more. They would like to be but can ' t. Faded memories of days in the dim past is their name and condition. Paschal Buckner makes the statement that he was offered a Pi Kappa Alpha bid but triumphantly declined it. l Slj % e S 0l4 ' we Ster -J926 THE NON- CONFORMITY CLUB Chartered: Many years ago Local chapter installed: Every year. Velma Biggs refuses, on April to, for the ten thousandth time, to bob her hair. Richard Hardin, famed Kappa Sigma, simply cannot be loyal to the traditions of Keepa Swig. He still loves the Tri Delts. Jerry Stevens leads the crew. As soon as the thermometer rises to fifty or above he puts on a coat. But let it freeze and snow, and Jerry ' s sleeves go up to stay. Archie Walker refuses to fall in love. P. S. That pin fell again about three weeks ago. Obie mocks the authority of the honor council and demands that since she is free white, twentv-one and unmarried, she will sleep in the patio if she so desires; regardless of where Johnnie Marie sleeps. John Harper refuses to conform to the universitv regulations and cuts chapel with the result that 1756 demerits are assessed against him. Rudolph Vaughan and Starkey Duncan refuse to live up to the tenets established by an organization of long standing on the campus. Both of these promising students have proven the oft repeated phrase that they all flop sooner or later — provided the chance is given them. Anyway, the Would-be-but-cant ' s don ' t seem to be shedding any tears over the loss. Pi Kappa Alpha just can ' t get the idea out of their head that they neither need nor want a house-mother. Kappa Sigma doesn ' t want a house mother either, but for entirely different reasons. Their ' s is solely pecuniary. They can ' t afford to remodel the house to accommodate her. But the Cutlass knows as well as they do, that they plan to remodel that house next summer anyway. What ' s wrong now! JS esU r ] Freshman Snipes and worse than Freshman French insist that it is their inalienable right to cut ahead of the entire University at the cafeteria, by passing the whole line up, and marching on in. I suppose their feeble constitutions would not stand a wait in line. Edwin Walker and Charlie Morgan insist that they must quit the single life and prove that two can live as cheaply as one. Late Bulletin: Both have surrendered, and beg to announce that it ' s a big lie. Dr. Barcus refuses to use any other than an Arkansas crush in his hat. Birch Downman must have his scotch, even though he has to announce to the world that a Freshman, instead of the curbing, was responsible for the cut he got above the eye. The all-seeing eye of the Cutlass, however, knows too much to believe that any Freshman could get away with a lick like that. Anyway, scotch does make the curbing bounce around considerably. I wonder if the parties pulled at the Sig house every week-end would go under the classification of House-warmings. I guess it ' s all for the best, but for the life of me, I can ' t understand whv Davidson alwavs manages to march ahead of the line with Miss Kuvk while all other faculty members have to stand in line just like the rest of us poor dumb cattle. Reckon there ' s any reason, or is it just the doings of Fate? Mary Nash Buttery certainly has changed. There was a time when she didn ' t seem to know there was such a thing as weather. You ought to see her prick up her ears and listen now when somebody savs that further rain will ruin the crops. That ranch is a miracle. Miss Kuyk says she hates pineapple bobs. So Fannie Florence makes a run for the barber shop and gets one. Now that it ' s all over, we beg to opine that Miss Kuyk was right. The Sou ' wester }92b PAGE CHARLES, PLEASE ! !

It has been sug- gested that he is: Rudolph Vaughan, Curtis Nunn, Elizabeth Little, Starkey Duncan, Roland Egger, Thomas Bishop, George Mood, Pascal Buckner, Walter Bell, Ed Onstot, David Searls, Johnnie Marie Brooks, and 420 others. The Cutlass thinks he knows still another, who is the real Charley, but for fear he may disgrace the name of Charley, he won ' t disclose his hunch at this time. Anyway, this Charley has a wonderful personality. His philosophy is certainly good, and we would have only one objection to make — he changes his philosophy entirely ' too often. George Mood promised me he ' d run a picture of Charley on the staff page of the weekly Headache, but later he announced that none of his cartoonists could get the right twist to the moustache, so he had to leave Charley out. Judging from the familv Charley presented at Chapel, I think he comes from the woods of Arkansas. Do you think of any of these students who are from Arkansas. Now don ' t get alarmed. Christine and Archie may look like they ' re from Arkansas, but they both come from the Texas side of Texarkana. It has been said that if the weekly letter to Mrs. Charley hadn ' t been in the paper, there would have been nothing worth reading. This makes it kinder hard on Ed, but he ' s had peaches and cream for a long time anyway. So will let it go for what it ' s worth. Anyway, Charley has con- tributed much to the paper, whether he made the paper each week or not. Thanks, try again! %e $ou ' wefter }92b (Shhhhh! ! ! We stole this from the manager ' s desk.

Second everything said about you is the truth the whole truth and nothing but the truth. Third everything has been said in sport — receive it like a sport whether you are or not. If you don ' t you will sprout long ears. TO THE FATHERS AND MOTHERS: Look back through these pages closely and see if one has been cut out. If so, you may rest assured your son or daughter has been mentioned on it and was ashamed to let you see, and I hope you will proceed to turn them across your knee and present the proper credentials to show who you are.

So he buckled right in with a bit of a grin On his face. If he worried, he hid it. He started to sing as he tackled the thing That couldn ' t be done, and he did it. Somebody scoffed: Oh, you ' ll never do that, .it least no one has ever done it: But he took off his coat and he took off his hat, .hid the first thing we knew he ' d begun it. With a lift of his chin and a bit of a grin, Without a doubt or quiddii, He started to sing as he tackled the thing That couldn ' t be done, and he did it. There arc thousands to tell you it cannot be done, There are thousands to prophesy failure; There are thousands to point out to you one by one The dangers that wait to assail you. But just buckle in with a bit of a grin, fust take off your coat and go to it; Just start to sing as you tackle the thing That cannot be done, and you ' ll do it. -Edgar A. Guest.
